Update On Why WWE Is Holding A “Throwback” Edition of SmackDown

Posted By: Ben Jordan Kerin on May 07, 2021

Tonight's episode of SmackDown on FOX will be a special "throwback" edition of the show.

What form that takes remains unclear with mainly pointing out that the show doesn't really qualify for a "retro" theme given it started in 1999, and many fans feel confused by the theme.

In regards to why it has been done, Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer is reporting the reason it is being done is due to some kind of tie-in with NASCAR on FOX who has a similar theme going on.

"That’s part of a tie-in with a NASCAR race on FOX with a similar theme so that’s where it came from. So this appears to have been a FOX directive."
